Welcome to Sacramento Friends in Training (Sacfit)
We're glad you dropped in! Go ahead and have a look around. We've got some really great running and walking programs that are fun, safe, and enjoyable. Also, the programs consider those who's time is a premium. After all, fitness is great, but there's more to life than just working out.

Winter/Spring Program Starts in January
Our training program starts January 9, 2010. Our initial meeting place for orientation and in-person registration is at the CSUS Alumni Center on January 9, 2010, at 8:30AM. Click here for CSUS Alumni Center Map and Directions

We do fill up fast, so we encourage you to sign up soon. Online registration is now open! CLICK HERE TO JOIN. 

For those not so inclined to register in cyberspace, we offer the traditional in-person registration at our January 9 program kick-off.

Right after you register, we have a quick orientation, which includes a brief pace run or walk to determine an appropriate pace group for you. So bring your running or walking shoes!

Can't make the January 9 Kick-off date?
No problem. We have Online open registration until January 25, as well as in-person registration on January 16 and 23. And don't worry, we will present and review the same orientation information for all new members on those subsequent Saturdays. (So don't come home early from your holiday vacation!)

Note: Our meeting location after the January 9 program kick-off will be at William Pond Park. Click here for William Pond Map and Directions

What is Sacfit?

Sacfit is a running and walking team that provides individualized training programs for various distances. 

Our 2010 Winter/Spring training program is specially tailored for the American River Parkway Half-Marathon and 5K 

In fact, when you join Sacfit, you get a guaranteed entry into Parkway race - either the Half Marathon or 5K - at a deep discount. And even if you've already signed up for the Parkway event, we'll refund the difference if you join. Hey, that's just how we operate. We want you out there having fun and we know sometimes budgets are tight. 

So whether you are beginner or veteran runner or walker, our 16-week program will give you all the tools and training you need to assure you cross the finish line feeling strong and having fun, either to just finish of to improve your race time. 

Our training program also includes other fitness goals:

And while we pride ourselves in providing great training programs, we are most proud of our reputation as being THE fun running and walking group! 

Why so fun? Well, one reason is our approach to training. We believe the best way to achieve any fitness goal, be it a half marathon, 5K or just getting out the door, is to provide creative and enjoyable training techniques in a non-intimidating, inspiring, and supportive environment. 

But the most important element is our coaches and members. We come from all types of backgrounds - from beginners to advanced and the young to the young-at-heart. So whether you are a couch-potato, walker, casual jogger, or marathon veteran, you can count on finding a group that shares your abilities, interests, and goals.
